1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent programmed cell death process that involves lipid oxidation via the Fenton reaction to produce lipid peroxides, causing disruption of the lipid bilayer, which is essential for cellular survival. Ferroptosis has been implicated in the occurrence and treatment response of various types of cancer, and targeting ferroptosis has emerged as a promising strategy for cancer therapy. However, cancer cells can escape cellular ferroptosis by activating or remodeling various signaling pathways, including oxidative stress pathways, thereby limiting the efficacy of ferroptosis-activating targeted therapy. The key anti-oxidative transcription factor, nuclear factor E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2 or NFE2L2), plays a dominant role in defense machinery by reprogramming the iron, intermediate, and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4)-related network and the antioxidant system to attenuate ferroptosis. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in the regulation and function of Nrf2 signaling in ferroptosis-activated cancer therapy and explore the prospect of combining Nrf2 inhibitors and ferroptosis inducers as a promising cancer treatment strategy.
